Episode 124 - Invasions - The Second Battle Of Moy Tura
from Candlelit Tales Irish Mythology Podcast · host Candlelit Tales
Welcome back to the Invasions Series. This series is all about the oldest stories of Ireland, and the people who came to this land from afar over thousands of years. The epic clash between the Fomorians and the Tuatha de Dannan in the Second Battle of Moy Tura decides the fate of the Island of Destiny for generations to come. Family fights family and the first keening is heard as death takes its due from the battle field, and the grandson that was foretold to slay his grandfather faces down the ancient, Evil-Eyed king. We will be talking about this story in more detail in the next episode. Drop us a line or ask us a question and we’ll try to get to it in our post-show chat coming out this Sunday.
